Unfortunate scenario.

People are being displaced from their homes so that landlords can use housing to maximize profit. The law currently helps landlords to do this and does not include any meaningful safeguards for tenants defending their homes.

Indeed. It's so obvious "the law" was bribed by landlords, but what can people do against it?

Depends on where you live. L.A. County forces landlords to pay tenants a hefty sum of money if they want to evict them, and they have pretty great rent control in some areas.
